Creamy Basque Shrimp Scampi

Features:
  • Gluten Free
Cuisine:

Using Icelandic baby shrimp, I made a half recipe of this delicious scampi for the PRMR game & served it as an appy in gratin dishes over toast points for Christmas Eve dinner w/DH & my MIL. Other than using butter vs vegetable oil, I made just 1 other chg & added garlic that I see as a must (for me at least) in a scampi recipe. It was richly flavoured, generously sauced, well-received & an elegant start to our main holiday meal. Thx for sharing your recipe w/us. :-)

Creamy Basque Shrimp Scampi, Delicious! It is served here in a local Basque restaurant, and pairs well with rice or pasta This can easily be made with less butter or no cream, if you’d like , Using Icelandic baby shrimp, I made a half recipe of this delicious scampi for the PRMR game & served it as an appy in gratin dishes over toast points for Christmas Eve dinner w/DH & my MIL Other than using butter vs vegetable oil, I made just 1 other chg & added garlic that I see as a must (for me at least) in a scampi recipe It was richly flavoured, generously sauced, well-received & an elegant start to our main holiday meal Thx for sharing your recipe w/us :-), Very tasty, as well as quick and easy to make I normally like to add garlic to everything, but it was not missed here The shrimp have a very rich, flavorful quality The only thing different I did was to add a pinch of cayenne Then I served it over 8 oz of angel hair pasta (any more would absorb all the sauce) I will definitely make this again, and try it with orzo Thanks for a lovely recipe Made for PRMR
